Contented Sheep

Contented Sheep


Where are you grazing
little lost sheep,
in delectable pastures
or hilltops steep?

With insatiable appetites
you graze on and on
yet hunger for pastures
that are far beyond.

Oh little lost sheep
you're not satisfied
tho you still wander
the land far and wide.

You have all by-passed
the one pasture divine
where the grass is pure
and contented sheep dine.


You'd grow healthy and strong
and no longer stray,
in God's bountiful pasture
where you'll want to stay!

About the Poet
Christian since 1973, widowed in 2007, but by the divine appt. of God, I married a wonderful, godly widower in Oct. 2010. Three grown, married sons and eight grandchildren. My first love is Jesus who inspires my pen, for apart from Him I can do nothing! I desire to honor the Lord and edify readers thru poetry He inspires.
